C Specification

To dynamically set the cull mode, call:

// Provided by VK_EXT_extended_dynamic_state
void vkCmdSetCullModeEXT(
    VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
    VkCullModeFlags                             cullMode);

Parameters

  • commandBuffer is the command buffer into which the command will be recorded.

  • cullMode specifies the cull mode property to use for drawing.

Description

This command sets the cull mode for subsequent drawing commands when the graphics pipeline is created with VK_DYNAMIC_STATE_CULL_MODE set in VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::pDynamicStates. Otherwise, this state is specified by the VkPipelineRasterizationStateCreateInfo::cullMode value used to create the currently active pipeline.

Valid Usage
  • VUID-vkCmdSetCullMode-None-08971
    At least one of the following must be true:

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkCmdSetCullMode-commandBuffer-parameter
    commandBuffer must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

  • VUID-vkCmdSetCullMode-cullMode-parameter
    cullMode must be a valid combination of VkCullModeFlagBits values

  • VUID-vkCmdSetCullMode-commandBuffer-recording
    commandBuffer must be in the recording state

  • VUID-vkCmdSetCullMode-commandBuffer-cmdpool
    The VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must support graphics operations

Host Synchronization
  • Host access to commandBuffer must be externally synchronized

  • Host access to the VkCommandPool that commandBuffer was allocated from must be externally synchronized
